I just went to my local games store and was notified of the ability to preorder mario galaxy and metroid 3 as it will be released in sometime around June - they said it was definate information. Naturally i put 30 bucks on each! Because this is in Australia it should mean that the Americas will have it around the same time if not before!
WOOT METROID AND MARIO!
I doubt this information.
No offence to you. But they probably just want your money = saying they wouldn't be far off.
Only Nintendo will know when they will DEFINITELY be released.
Wikipedia also quotes Reggie saying sometime after march and a Q2 release, so it could well be...
Wikipedia = not trustworthy.
Reggie said we should expect Mario anywhere between April-December 2007. And we don't know crap about Metroid's release date either.
I don't wanna be doubtful but I would say not to believe them. Game stores spout out random release dates to guarantee a pre-order all the time. It may be true though, so I'm gonna do some research for you and tell you the results.
The main reason I doubt it is because its an Australian store at that. It'd be pretty random for them to know, and no one else.
And for them to get it at the same time as us. <_<
*Goes to research*
EDIT
Yep, nothing except "It'll arive from March to December 2007"
Which is very unlikely... we'll at least have to wait a few weeks longer than you guys.
I doubt that the 2 titles will be released at the same time. I think the titles will be released at least 3 or 4 months apart. I can see Metroid coming out sometime during the summer July,August time frame & Super Mario Galaxy coming out for the Holiday season. No better title to have for the Holiday season than a Mario title.
More and more waiting. =/

Careful, if Poet was here he'd kick you in the nuts for saying that about Wikipedia
gamestop has a pre-release date for
Corruption as being 6-01-07
Super Mario Galaxy 11-01-07
and we know those aren't set in stone, but I'm guessing they're not that far off.
horray for smg! (even though the info may be false

)
Not a chance. Both will be released October or later (Don't be surprised if its December or *gasp*...2008). I hate it when people get their hopes up because some guy gave a release date or some random website made up some random release date. Only trust the words when they come straight from Nintendo or an announcement from a very high-profile website i.e. IGN, GameSpot, etc (and even those can be sketchy at times).
It's all about waiting...why do I feel like us Nintendo fans are so used to this 'waiting'...*sigh*

Why does everyone say Nintendo pushes releases back like they're the only ones that do so?
Anyone remember that grueling wait for a turd of a game called Halo 2?
Aside from online play it SUCKED. At least when Nintendo pushes something back its for good reason and the games wind up being worth the wait.
Wait, Poet liked Wikipedia? I had no idea... I just mean, that if there is false info there then the lazy Wiki admins are very slow to get rid of it.
Halo 2... aside from online play it sucked... well Halo 1... aside from multiplayer it sucked.
Halo = multiplayer game.

They need Super Mario Galaxy to compete with the monster that is Halo 3! Metroid Prime 3 would help as well.
